Re Seattle airtel to Bureau, 5/12/76.

There are no newspapers, magazines or similar publications located within the Los Angeles Division that would be in a position to make space available to publish such a volume of serial numbers listing as involved in captioned case.

Prior contact with media outlets regarding similar requests as set forth in referenced airtel has determined that before a media outlet will even consider printing a volume of serial numbers, the matter must be of current, constant highlight news interest (such as the first case) and must have a constant, meaningful local interest to the readership.
